Where I played, joysticks were for tournament play in games like xwing vs tie fighter, mechwarrior 2 and 3, and other sims. With the latter two in particular, the lines between keyboard/mouse players and joystick players could be a bit extreme. there were real reasons behind it though. Joystick gamers were usually older, had money to burn(joysticks ain't cheap), and were involved or interested in the fiction behind the games. Joystick/mouse players were younger(in one case, as young as 9), had no idea what the game world was about usually(one kid in particular mixed up star wars and mechwarrior regularly), and were almost universally poor, being kids and young teens. It was an interesting situation.Drejk wrote:Freehold DM wrote: TOZ wrote: Drejk wrote: Uh... My experience is exactly opposite: controllers are crap, mouse plus keyboard is so much better...
